political correctness is a doctrine.... fostered by a delusional, illogical minority...... and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media; which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

They wouldn't be hiring if they weren't moving product. It's headquarted in Irving Texas, the bastion of corporate greed. In fact, the new CEO is a "take down guy" - cut the workforce, threaten those that remain for higher and higher production levels and line their own pockets. Nope just another bunch of rich white guys riding the wave of conservative destructionism. Corporate greed.

Compared with the greed of the union bosses, who probably are white too?

They may think they're altruistic, but they'd sell their grandmother down the river for a few extra bucks or to protect their pumped-up pride during contract negotiations.

Re: Hostess Cupcakes Getting Ready to Shut Down Because of Unions.[TSWB]
One can be bankrupt and still conducting business. The business can be producing positive cashflow, just not enough to meet debt obligations after operating expenses.

This is a shame, I am sympathetic to unionized PRIVATE employees. We should tell WTO to take a hike, so we can protect unionized jobs like these.

WTO doesn't threaten unionized PUBLIC employees because their work generally cannot be outsourced. Yet, in a cruel twist, unionized public employees are a horrible perversion of the collective bargaining concept, because the public has no option to go bankrupt, it must just sit there and pay.

That's true too. Wonder White bread is nasty, and it's like Elmer's glue that's whipped into a lather and turned into sponge form.

Mochelle is correct about shitty food in one way, but fatass libtards like her often sneak out the back door and stuff their fat faces with Twinkies and colas.

Whose side are you on, anyway?! Unions were formed to stop exploitation of workers and to attempt to get them a living wage. Now the unions are busted and Americans' average income has been declining for at least a decade while stocks and corporate incomes continue to rise? Why is exploitation of American workers in order to enrich company owners a Good Thing???!

They should just go bankrupt.
The union has broken the company.
Let the chips fall where they may.

Or maybe Obama could buy the company for us,
and give all the workers a raise, and cut the price
of twinkies, and hand China the bill?

Why not? It's worked so far.
